...
It was Monday.
I can't believe I was really desperate to get myself a job and when I found one, I was reluctant to actually work now.
Maybe I wouldn't be if it was any other person other than Blaze Lockheart. Maybe I wouldn't be if I didn't have this nagging feeling in the pit of my stomach about him trying to make my life miserable.
And I was right. The moment he stepped into the office, he called for me.
I mean wasn't he supposed to be asking his secretary for his basic needs and assistance?.
I don't even know my position in his company and yet here he was, asking me to make him 'his' morning coffee with half a teaspoon of honey and a lot of skimmed milk.
A protest was bubbling on my lips but I pushed it back down, half-glaring and half faking a smile as I stared at his super handsome face.
Instead, I walked into the small room which he directed me to.
There was a coffee machine, a toaster and a couple of mugs. There was honey, marmalade and all types of sugar : brown sugar, regular granulated white sugar, coconut sugar, pure maple syrup and even raw cane sugar.
Great way to brag about sugar, Blaze Lockheart!
Sighing, I carefully selected some fresh beans and made sure they were 'safe' for consumption. it's not like I'm trying to kill my boss on my first day of work!
I put the beans in the coffee maker and turned it on, waiting patiently when I suddenly heard someone shout my name. The familiar masculine voice sent chills down my spine nd not in a good way. I immediately bolted for his office, only to find him with a huge scowl ob his face.
"Miss Amerylla, do I need to brief you on your job as an assistant?", he asked with pure venom lacing his voice nd malice in his eyes. I gulped immediately and tried to find my composure. Looking at him at the moment, reminded me of the Greek God Hades and I did not appreciate the comparison at all.
"No sir", I simply replied with a straight face as I cocked my head and straightened my back. There was absolutely no way I was giving him the satisfaction of knowing that he scared me shitless. My knees buckled a little and I caught as faint smirk on his lips as he eyed me from top to bottom.
It was undeniable that he caught my short moment of weakness.
I gulped and dared to look into his eyes and I immediately regretted that decision shortly when I saw the mischief dancing in his beautiful brown orbs. A flicker of playfulness flashed in his eyes for a second and then bang!, he was gibing me his ice cold glare once again. I quickly averted my gaze, suddenly finding my black pumps interesting for some reason.
That annoying man, one moment projecting murder vibes and then the next, he'll look at you like a kitten he wants to pet...then before you know it, he's back to the I-want-to-make-skewers-out-of-you stare. I hate him.
"Did my coffee take a vacation to Neverland?", he suddenly asked and I stared up at him in confusion.
He quirked an eyebrow at me and my eyes widened in realisation.
"oh crap", I shouted, before immediately bolting out of his office.
Blaze let out a small sigh as a grin formed on his face. How I wish I could wipe that stupid grin off his extremely handsome face.
I returned with the coffee to fond him with a scowl on his face. He was talking on the phone so he immediately dismissed like a pesky fly, with nothing but a swat of his hand.
Sighing simply, I left the coffee on his desk and disappered into a nearby door. My inquisitive mind had decided to take a tour around the office beacuse I had seen the door left open. I mean, who wouldn't want to peek through a randomly open door?, well except it is a setting in a horror movie. Theere was an old bookshelf with some old-looking books on it. A few were without their front pages and for some reason it intrigued Amy. Drawing closer, she pulled one and opened a random page.
'his fingers glided over her hot skin, sliding slowly down towards her thigh and deeper down. He drove her insane with his wild kisses and she found herself delirious with pleasure...'.
She flipped the next page, having being intrigued by the last words on the prevoius page and definitely forgetting that she was probably looking through 'classified' stuff.
Her eyes widened at the item she saw latched in between the pages she had flipped and she slowly brought her fingers to it, gulping before letting her fingers glide over the foil.
"What the hell are you doing snooping around?",
A deep voice suddenly shouted behind her, startling her. She fumbled to close the book and place it back on the shelf. A faint sound filled the air as the item fell right in front of her. She watched in horror as he slowly bent down and picked it up.
"Condom?. You brought a bloody condom to the office?"
And she froze.
3days later, Amy sat perched on a seat in an aeroplane. The subject of the condom was never brought up again as she tried unsuccessfully to explain it to the blockhead sitting beside her, her boss.
As it was she was already fascinated at the thought of going to Rome with a private jet when she had barely sat in a plane. She turned to steal a glance at Blaze. He seemed to be deep in thought as his eyes scanned over the file in his hands.
"if you keep staring, you may have to pay for damages", he coldly commented without blinking or looking away from the paper in his hand.
Right, I forgot your face is a precious monument from billions of years ago. Amy thought sarcastically.
A smile dotted her lips and Blaze couldn't help but notice it. He had a very smug look on his face and Amy didn't appreciate it one bit.
"At least you seem happy. Guess you were just exaggerating when you said you hadn't travelled with a man before", he whispered in his annoying voice.
Fuck you, Amy thought but smiled nonetheless.
"As much as I'm happy being here with you sir. I have to say that the food is really great here and I would travel anywhere with you as long as I can eat this everyday"
The smug look on his face quickly fell and was replaced with a glare. Amy immediately pursed her lips and looked down.
"Guess you wouldn't mind the accommodation either".
Blaze watched as confusion fluttered across her features and he hid a triumphant smile.
